The Ghana International school is appealing to friends and family in and out of the GIS community to save the life of 8 year old Eryam Ekpe: a boy who suffers from a complex heart condition known as double outlet right ventricle (DORV). He urgently needs heart surgery to enable him live a normal life.

Mary Ocansey reminded pupils of Vanessa Dzamesi, the most recent beneficiary to have received treatment in 2016 through our relentless efforts as a school. She is now a happy healthy little girl. She went on to urge pupils to once again come together to give the gift of life to Eyram this festive season.
